Sex, Lies and Sensibility by Nikki Payne

Nora is not having a good year. She’s just discovered that she and her sister Yanne are her late father’s secret family, all they got left in the will was a barely habitable house in MAINE of all places, and oh yeah, her sex tape just went viral. With no options at home, she and Yanne head to Maine with hopes of fixing the place up and making it a viable inn before they run out of money.

Bear has a habit of taking on more responsibility than he can handle, and the weight of his Abenaki community rests on his shoulders. If his tourism business fails, the community fails too—and it’s not looking good for business right now, especially since the abandoned house they use as a home base is suddenly un-abandoned by a beautiful woman and her sister. But maybe if they work together, all of them can succeed—or maybe it’ll bring all of them down?

This is a modern retelling of Sense and Sensibility, and in Nikki’s capable hands, it’s fresh and funny and sexy. It’s out everywhere today!

(I’m not the editor on this one—just worked with Nikki on an early version of the story. But I’m always happy to hype her up!)

So Flocked by Sarah Estep

Listen, none of us saw Jordy Taylor coming.

Sarah Estep’s group of CPs, betas, and early readers (including me as her editor) did not expect Jordy to become our fave (out of the Brunch Bros, I was betting on Peter), but Sarah makes him a hell of a hero.

So Flocked features Jordy, a pro football player in the twilight of his career, and Annie, a recent ornithology PhD unsure about her future, accidentally sharing a lighthouse in the run-up to their best friends’ wedding.

They decide that they’re going to be friends with benefits up until the wedding, and are DEFINITELY not going to catch feelings, no they are not. (OF COURSE they do.) But they’re at totally different points in their lives, so how will they make it work?

This is a laugh-out-loud-funny rom-com with tons of heat—Jordy and Annie are SO into each other, physically and emotionally. So Flocked is out on KU and Amazon now!

Hazel and Elijah Get Mixed Up by Marty Vee

It’s release day for Hazel and Elijah Get Mixed Up by Marty Vee in the Fall into Love anthology. The anthology is all small-town romances with big fall vibes, and I got to edit Marty’s!

Hazel and Elijah had a one-night stand a while back, and it was unforgettable for both. So unforgettable for Elijah that he’s willing to go back to their hometown that he was essentially run out of when he was younger just so he can spend more time with Hazel.

But Hazel is a super-busy veterinarian who hates asking for help even when she needs it, and she needs to raise money for the animal society in town. When she puts together a bachelor auction, she comes under fire from the more conservative townspeople, led by Elijah’s estranged father, who wants to use her relationship with black sheep Elijah against her.

Who will prevail? Read and see! The Fall Into Love anthology is out in KU now!

Stay by Tracy Ewens

Listen, Tracy and I talked about it, and we agree that this hero is just stop-and-double-take hot. He doesn’t know it, but he is.

World-renowned cellist Clara arrives in small-town Bodega Bay to claim her inheritance to a historic hotel owned by her late grandfather—who she never knew existed. Meanwhile, hometown boy Dylan is at a crossroads in his career when his mentor leaves him his hotel—yeah, the same hotel.

Under the terms of the will, they’ll have to live and work together for six months to renovate the place before they decide what to do with it.

Digging deep into both their pasts brings them together, but it’s the future that might push them apart.

Stay by Tracy Ewens is out now!

Birthdays and Bachelors by Elle Rush

Gloria only joked to her friends that she needed a boyfriend for her 30th birthday--but they made it happen, or at least set her up with some bachelors. Now she has more dates than she knows what to do with. Between her high school sweetheart, the billionaire, the town bad boy (there's a less polite word for him, but this is a sweet romance here!), PLUS the bonus new-in-town doctor, she's got more dates than she knows what to do with.

The new-in-town doctor, Daniel, is determined to win Gloria's heart. But with all this competition, how can he stand out? He's accidentally witnessed all of her dates be disasters, so he's gotta pull out all the stops to show her he's worth the risk.

This is such a great premise, and so much fun! It’s part of Elle Rush’s Holiday Beach series, in which each book is a novella based around a holiday. Birthdays and Bachelors is available now!
